Ecogy Longwood is a 1.57 MWdc ground-mount system for Longwood Gardens, the largest botanical garden in the U.S. Using a special mounting system, we were able to avoid stripping the land, altering the topography, or affecting Longwood’s storm water plan. Partnering with Longwood allowed for the development of a special meadow seed mix to be planted between rows to minimize storm water runoff, maximize biodiversity and create aesthetic appeal.
